    light gear for camping

    http://www.zebralight.com/ best headlamp I have ever owned, given them as gifts and never heard a bad thing. Super tough as I am really hard on gear. Super bright and use a SINGLE AA battery which makes it easy to carry spares or a 12v or solar charger.

    Utah in the fall 2015 - 9 days, 475 off-road miles, and 14 hours of digging! (PICS!)

    Great pics...and amazing articulation on the van/trailer combo. I saw a couple of pics on Facebook but this is so much better to get the full story.
